"Love thy neighbour as thyself. Belgian director Olivier Masset-Depasse challenges this commandment in his third feature, 'Duelles', a Hitchcockian thriller about a sudden tragedy that uproots the lives of two women and their families that will put you on the edge of your seat.

Alice (Veerle Baetens) and Céline (Anne Coesens) share a special bond. Each living on one side of a stately suburban semi-detached home, their two families almost live like one. Their sons, Maxime and Theo, are more like brothers than friends. Alice and Céline share carpool duties and the families celebrate all special occasions together. But when tragedy strikes, relationships are tested and a crippling sense of paranoia changes the previously quotidian interactions between the women into a psychological duel of biblical proportions."

ATTENTION: The film will have English subtitles, not Dutch as previously announced.
